Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 (2012): The complete review – Part 5

Navigating the interface took some getting used to, but was easy enough to pick up; however, I took issue with the method by which cable TV screen menus are controlled by the interface. Peel went with a swipe interface that requires you to flick the screen in one of four directions in order to highlight different menus. While this method works and after some time could be gotten used to, I would have much preferred more-direct directional controls.

There are certain features that still need to be addressed For the Tab 7.7 or other Samsung tablets to become synonymous to the universal remote controls. The Hulu and Netflix are still absent in the roster and it would not kill the company to add their guides and app features to the Peel’s Remote app.  Moreover, the range of the remote control application to function seamlessly is limited to 8 feet, which, sort of, cramps the place. I think that should be increased 12 or so feet.

As far as the hardware is concerned, the new Tab 7.7 brings some of the best in the crowd. In the category of small-form-factor tablets, the Tab brings the highest specs in a very thin and stylish chassis. The Tab 7.7 houses Samsung’s 1.4GHz dual-core Exynos 4210 CPU, 1GB of RAM, and 16GB of storage. It has 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi support, Bluetooth 2.1+EDR, and GPS.

The two speakers on the bottom of the tablet deliver bass-heavy sound that’s able to reach high volumes without any distortion, or at least none that my ears were able to discern. However, the Tab 7.7’s don’t quite get as loud as the Tab Plus 7.0’s sometimes boisterous speakers.
